Cat hunting water snakes - in the tub!

Ollie is a rescued kitten, and he's about 9 or 10 months old. And he, like many cats, has a few idiosyncrasies. When we first got him, he accidentally jumped into a bath - and *right* back out again! But since then, he just wants so badly to play with the junk my son leaves behind after his bath. Today, as my son was getting ready to have his bath, he knocked a watch in the tub. Ollie, who of course had come into the bathroom the moment he heard the water pouring, was standing by, and walked into the full tub to chase the watch... Note that my teenaged daughter is Ollie's human, and she has gently pushed him into the tub before, but only when there was shallow water. We weren't expecting this at all!

It's a Bombay cat. They like water.

@2008nickcody Well, this one is just a garden variety rescue cat... he's all black with a few white hairs on his chest...

[vancouverlori]

@123reef1 - not as far as I know. He's just a run of the mill rescue cat. He's all black except for a few hairs on his chest, and his face is a little pointy like a Siamese. And now that he's grown he's sort of got a "no-neck Joe" look going on - very beefy cat! And according to my daughter, he waded into the bath yesterday to bat things around - stiffly, as though he didn't really want to get wet, but he still waded in! Crazy cat! (And today he managed to eat a pork chop while I was busy!

what did the cat do to get out?how did it react?

[vancouverlori]

@3englands - I can't remember, it's been a long time! I think he eventually decided to jump out, and we towelled him off. He didn't like that part 'cuz he got cold. He got into the water to chase things a few times after that, but not since he became an adult... they grow up so fast! ;)

@2008nickcody My cat's a Bombay.....he hates water though

[2008nickcody]

@elizabethwalker07 I did. I think it may be a bombay cat though. It looked like one. Don't comment on readom stuff.

[elizabethwalker07]

@2008nickcody but in the description, she said the cat didn't like water AT FIRST, so i don't think it's a bombay cat, might look like one. The cat likes playing with the kids toys... read the description.
